Amidst chants of “Bole so nihal,” six resolutions were passed, including an appeal to the SGPC executive committee to respect the sentiments of the Sikh community. The first resolution rejected the appointment of Jathedars Giani Kuldeep Singh Gargaj and Baba Tek Singh Dhanaula by the SGPC.Another resolution demanded the reinstatement of Giani Raghbir Singh, Giani Sultan Singh, and Giani Harpreet Singh, who were earlier removed as Jathedars of Akal Takht, Keshgarh Sahib, and Damdama Sahib, respectively, at the upcoming SGPC executive body meeting scheduled for March 17.Additionally, the congregation called upon the Sikh community to boycott members of the SGPC executive committee. However, it hailed the three SGPC executive members who opposed the decision to sack the Jathedars.A further resolution appealed to the SGPC to frame clear rules for the appointment and removal of Jathedars of Sikh Takhts, with the approval of Sikh intellectuals. The congregation warned that if the SGPC failed to reverse its decision, Sikhs from across Punjab would march to Amritsar on March 28, when the SGPC is set to hold its general house meeting.
